VOICEMAILS FOR ISABELLE (2026): New Trailer Starring Nick Offerman, Zoey Deutch, Lukas Gage, Nick Robinson…

4 Comments

From writer/director Leah McKendrick, Voicemails for Isabelle is a new drama/comedy/romance in which Jill (Zoey Deutch) leaves voice messages to her deceased sister. Only, the messages aren’t exactly going anywhere close to where she thinks they are.

Nick Robinson, Nick Offerman, Lukas Gage, and Toby Sandeman are among the key cast.

This one I have to see because I’m a Robinson fan and I like the unexpected premise.

Also, who isn’t excited by an extra unhinged Offerman character?

Harry Shum Jr., Gil Bellows, Ciara Bravo, Spencer Lord, Leah McKendrick, William Vaughan, Calix Fraser, Roraigh Falkner, Megan Danso, Shane Dean and Amanda Khan also star.

Voicemails for Isabelle Release Dates: June 19th, 2026 (US)…

MINIONS & MONSTERS (2026): New Trailer Starring Christoph Waltz, Jeff Bridges, Zoey Deutch, Allison Janney…

14 Comments

Christoph Waltz, Jeff Bridges, Zoey Deutch, Allison Janney and Pierre Coffin are the stars of Minions & Monsters, the Coffin-written/directed next instalment of the adventures of the mischievous yellow troublemakers, the Minions.

The new story sees them recruiting terrifying creatures for their very own monster movie.

“Behold! The all-powerful Irene!‘ Or perhaps, Eyerene!

This silly line and the corresponding scene made me giggle. I’m definitely watching this, and I suspect it will have a similar vibe to Despicable Me 3. Because I imagine ‘Eyerene’ or the tiny monster will be fun like Balthazar Bratt, the purple-suited Michael Jackson super-fan.

Also, is it me or is the speech of the minions making more and more sense with each film? Perhaps in the twentieth movie, they’ll be speaking clear English and be easily understood.

Minions & Monsters Release Dates: July 1st, 2026 (US & UK)…

Diane Lane, Kyle Chandler, Dylan O’Brien, and Phoebe Dynevor are the stars of Anniversary, a Jan Komasa-directed thriller that follows a very close-knit family torn apart following ‘the change.’

I’m intrigued by the Dynevor, O’Brien and Lane dynamic. And, if ‘the change’ is what I think it is, it’s a smart move by the trailer editors, not explicitly stating anything.

In any case, I suspect I’ll enjoy Dynevor playing an American.

What are your thoughts about Anniversary so far?

Daryl McCormack, Mckenna Grace, Madeline Brewer, Flavia Watson, Maya O’Shea, Jolly Abraham, Selda Kaya and Kaja Chan also star.

Anniversary Release Dates: October 29th, 2025 (US)…

JUROR #2 (2024): The Things I Liked…

I enjoyed Juror #2, Clint Eastwood’s latest legal thriller starring Nicholas Hoult, Kiefer Sutherland, Toni Collette, J.K. Simmons and Zoey Deutch.

Centred around a moral dilemma that Hoult’s character Justin faces, I’m happy to confirm that his emotional journey (the element that intrigued me the most) is well-mapped. I enjoyed the story edit and the way the film is cut so much that it felt like not a single second of screen time was wasted. 

As far as courtroom dramatics are concerned, the thrills/moments that will keep you enthralled have little, if anything, to do with the lawyers. Because the action is everything going on in Justin’s mind – and visible on his face; very little of which he has to say out loud.

In addition to the story edit, Hoult’s performance kept me engaged the whole time, all the way through to the perfect yet frustrating ending.

Eastwood’s film may not be perfect, but I say watch Juror #2 for what Hoult’ dies with his role and the reasons above. I suspect gratitude for not being in Justin’s shoes will likely be ever-present as the movie plays.

Happy Film Loving,

JUROR #2 (2024): New Trailer Starring Zoey Deutch, Nicholas Hoult, J.K. Simmons, Toni Collette, Kiefer Sutherland…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Juror #2 (2024).

Clint Eastwood’s latest film is a thriller starring Nicholas Hoult as Justin Kemp, a family man faced with a near-impossible moral dilemma.

Toni Collette, Kiefer Sutherland, Zoey Deutch and J.K. Simmons are among the key cast.

What a meaty character study. I love that I have no idea what Justin is going to do. Such a wonderful cast too.

I’m excited to see Hoult flourish in this great role. What a tragic predicament his character finds himself in.

Leslie Bibb, Gabriel Basso, Francesca Eastwood, Chris Messina, Amy Aquino, Cedric Yarbrough, Drew Scheid, Adrienne C. Moore, Ella Fraley and KateLynn E. Newberry also star.

Juror #2 Release Dates: November 1st (US & UK)…
